The Prince Who Was Raised in Hell

Behind the veil, Josua felt her heart beating wildly as she watched Sonya in the arena not far away from her.

At that moment, the lifted eyes and disdainful gaze were precisely the same as that man.

If there was still a hint of doubt before, Josua was confident that the fake, Fierce Dragon, who trained with her every day and helped her improve, was Sonya!

Initially, it was just a misunderstanding, but now it felt like a strange fate.

After going around, the person, in the end, was still him.

Josua only felt that her breathing got heavier.

Next, she tried her best to calm herself down, and she secretly peeped at Lucy.

After all, Josua was filled with guilt at that moment, and she was terrified that Lucy might have recognized Mozart.

Nevertheless, Lucy did not have such keen observation.

The little brat was currently covering her chest with both hands, staring at Sonya as she mumbled, “He's so handsome...”

Josua could not help but smile.

In the crowd below the arena, a tall man rushed out and ran toward Yoel

His face was full of anger as he pointed at Sonya and roared, “Why did you act so ruthlessly!”

At a glance, Sonya could tell that the man was Yoel's father, Frank Lawrence.

He was a martial art trainer in the Lawrence family.

Sonya directly answered Frank unkindly, “What's wrong? Your kid can’t win against me, and you're here to avenge me? There's no use even if you win as the Dark Moon Sect won't admit an old man like you.”

"You!" Frank was so angry that one could see his chest undulating, and his eyes turned bloodshot. Nonetheless, Frank knew that saving his son was more urgent.

Moreover, he could not do anything toward Sonya under everyone's watchful eyes.

Frank only glared at Sonya and hurriedly carried Yoel away.

As such, Sonya became the first person to enter the top eight.

However, his goal was the first prize.

He could not care less about the other rewards.

Sonya also paid attention to the next few matches.

At that time, the few youngsters who held their skills back also showed their true capabilities as the rewards enticed them

Those who successfully entered the top eight were overjoyed, and the losers could only leave in disappointment.

There was still nothing much going on with Ashton’s matches.

Just like the previous games, Ashton’s opponent directly admitted defeat.

Nevertheless, despite knowing that they would lose, Ashton’s opponents had a different mentality compared to Sonya’s.

As Ashton’s opponents, there was no other choice besides admitting defeat.

However, being Sonya’s match meant that they could get beneficial advice.

How was that not enviable?

Thus, some of them were willing to lose but hoped that they became Sonya's opponent so that he could give them a piece of advice or two.

Soon, the result of the top eight was decided.

Besides Sonya and Ashton, the remaining six could be regarded as the outstanding ones amongst the Lawrence family’s younger generations.

Even if they could not represent the Lawrence family in the Evergreen Town's competition among the prominent families and entered the Dark Moon Sect, they would still be favored and supported by the clan from that day onward.

Thus, there would not be a big problem for them being the backbone of the Lawrence family in the future.

For the next elimination matches to enter the top four, Sonya was still the same as before.

He brought his Silver Spears along but stabbed it in the ground of the arena.

Sonya's opponent also expressed his admiration and respect for Mozart.

Then, he showed his martial arts and received Sonya’s guidance.

After that, amidst the envy of everyone, he admitted defeat and left the ring contentedly.

The other games were far more intense, and clanking sounds could be heard for a while.

Ashton’s opponent, that time, did not throw in his towel but chose to fight him.

However, it was evident that the difference between him and Ashton was far more significant than he expected.

With just a move, Ashton slapped his shoulder, and he spat blood.

Then, he fell down the arena

Compared to the treatment Sonya’s opponents received, the difference was massive.

Soon, the top four of the competition emerged.

At that time, Ashton still appeared indifferent, and he did not even care about the three other participants.

Behind the veil, Lucy clenched her tiny fists, and she appeared joyful.

“Lady Josua! Lady Josua! Valentina successfully enters the top four.

If nothing bad happens, I'm sure he'll enter the top two.

Does that mean there's a chance for him to represent the Lawrence family in the Evergreen Town's competition?”

“Lady Josua, why do you seem unhappy? Is it because Valentina’s performance is better than you expected, so you're regretting your previous decision?” Lucy asked

Although Lucy was just guessing blindly, Josua became anxious, and she almost jumped.

“I'm not! How is that possible! Hahahahaha! I don't have any feelings for him at all! What does he have to do with me!”

After saying that, Josua realized Lucy looked at her with a strange expression.

Then, Josua pretended to be calm and asked, “What's wrong?”

“Lady Josua, why are you blushing?” Lucy stared at Josua suspiciously, “Dont you know what you said only gave yourself away?”

Josua did not reply to Lucy.

Next, Lucy continued, “Don’t you know that covering it up only makes it more obvious?”

Josua was at a loss for words.

Thankfully, the next game started at that time, and it attracted Lucy's attention.

It also helped Josua escape the awkward situation.

There were only three matches left in the competition, which were two semi-finals and one final round.

Everyone was sure that the final round would be Sonya and Ashton.

That was indeed the case.

After getting some pointers, Sonya’s opponent left the arena satisfied.

As for Ashton’s match, he was unwilling to resign.

Then, he was poorly beaten out of the ring and lost the game.

“It's them! It seems that Valentina is stronger than what we expected,” Lucy looked at the two finalists and sighed gently, "However, I think Valentina won't be the winner.

After all, Ashton was previously the best in the Lawrence family.

I bet he was training hard to snatch back the title.

“That's not set in stone.” Josua giggled.

"Why not?” Lucy looked at Josua puzzledly.

Then, after a while, she showed a look of sudden realization.

"Oh! I understand it now! Lady Josua, you're supporting Valentina, right! Is this considered marital harmony?”

“It's not!” Josua hurriedly denied.

However, when she said those words, her mind flashed with the image of Sonya's eyes that were as bright as the stars.

At the thought of that, her heart trembled slightly, and even her tone softened when she said, “I just think that Ashton had it too easy these few years, and it'd surely help him grow if he met some setbacks.”
